00:00A Animal Welfare Advocate group has filed a complaint against a Chinese national
00:06who was attacked by a cat in Makati City.
00:10JM Pineda was at the center of the news.
00:15This post was received with a lot of reaction on social media
00:19by an Animal Welfare Advocate in Cara, Philippines.
00:22It was posted about the attack of a Chinese national
00:26in the community of Ayala Triangle Gardens.
00:28The cat was at home because of the attack of a foreigner
00:31who was also caught by CCTV.
00:33According to Cara, Philippines, the man was brought to the barangay
00:36but because there was no formal complaint,
00:38he could not be jailed.
00:40The Chinese national also said that he just wrote to the Chinese embassy
00:45and refused to give details of what he was pursuing.
00:48On the other hand,
00:50the group decided to file a case of animal abuse against the foreigner.
00:54Under the RA 8485 or Animal Welfare Act of 1998,
00:59any kind of abuse and cruelty to animals is prohibited
01:03just like what the Chinese national did.
01:06Prisoners are waiting for the people who will do this.
01:24They will file a case because of the cruelty to the animal.
01:33The group also explained that the situation is more alarming now
01:37because of the cruelty to animals in our own country.
01:41It is also a big thing that many people know
01:45the importance of respect for animals.
01:47It is also necessary to take action to reduce
01:50the animal abuse that is happening in the Philippines.
01:53We, the people, will speak up for the animals,
01:58especially if there is a case of animal abuse.
02:01They remind the public to be responsible individuals
02:05and to teach stray animals to their communities.
02:09It is important to have a program for them.
02:12We will apply the CNDR,
02:15which is Capture and Rehabilitation of Vaccinated Animals Program.
02:18It's a program that is very effective in managing
02:23community animals, or stray animals for others.
02:27Because if the program is implemented in the neighborhood,
02:30in the residential area,
02:33the animals will be monitored.
